The mother of Townville Elementary School shooting victim Jacob Hall has been charged with two counts of mistreating animals.

Tina Renae Hall was arrested Jan. 30 and released from the Anderson County Detention Center the same day on a personal-recognizance bond, according to court records.

According to a deputy's incident report from the Anderson County Sheriff's Office, an officer responded to Hall's home on Elliott's Fish Camp Road in Fair Play after receiving a report that dogs there were "skinny and not being fed."

The officer wrote that he tried to contact someone at the home and had no luck.

"The screen door on the front porch was open and when I looked in, I saw a brown and white female pit bull mix that appeared to be nursing puppies," the deputy wrote. "I located two small puppies in the carrier with a blanket under them. I secured the door back so the female dog could not get out."

The officer wrote that he found two more dogs in a 20-by-20 pen outside.

"The first puppy appeared to be approximately 10 weeks old and was underweight," the deputy wrote. "The other dog was under a year old and was severely underweight as you could see its ribs showing through the skin. The pen had trash in it and I was not able to locate any water or food for the dogs, nor did they have any type of shelter to protect them from the weather."

In the backyard, the deputy found another dog tethered to a tree, he wrote. The dog had fresh water and a blue barrel for a doghouse, but the bottom of the barrel had been cut out, he wrote.

According to the incident report, the deputy learned from neighbors that Hall lived at the home, and the deputy left a note on the door asking for Hall to contact him.

Hall is still facing pending drug charges from an incident that occurred in April.

According to arrest warrants, the drugs were found during a consensual search of her Chevy Equinox. The search occurred at In-Town Suites, an extended-stay hotel on Civic Center Boulevard in Anderson.

Hall is facing a charge of cocaine possession, a charge of marijuana possession and a charge of possessing methamphetamine with intent to distribute it, according to arrest warrants.

Hall's son, Jacob, was mortally wounded last fall in a shooting at Townville Elementary School, where he was a first-grader. During his funeral, Jacob's mother, who goes by the name Renae, was among hundreds of mourners who dressed as superheroes in his honor.

The latest charges against Renae Hall come just days before a scheduled hearing for Jesse Osborne, the teenager charged in 6-year-old Jacob's death.

The teen is accused of killing his father, 47-year-old Jeffrey Osborne, in their Townville home on Sept. 28, 2016, then taking his truck to the school about three miles away. Investigators say Jesse Osborne opened fire on the playground, wounding two 6-year-old students, hurting a third student, and shooting a first-grade teacher.

Jacob died of his injuries three days later. His tiny body was dressed in a Batman costume for his wake.

A hearing to determine whether Jesse Osborne will be tried as an adult on murder charges is scheduled to begin Monday at the Anderson County Courthouse.

Field Dunaway, an Anderson attorney who represents Jacob Hall's estate and who represents Renae Hall on the drug charges, said Tuesday that he does not represent her on the newest case and cannot comment on it.
